Support » Theme: Kelly » Non-Collapsible Menu Option ?

  • Resolved Shapeshifter 3

    During a short survey, I handed a Google Nexus 7 tablet to several bystanders who had never seen this website before (https://shapeshifter3.com). Two of them asked me if it was possible to see ALL of the lyrics for each post. Neither had taken the effort to read the tagline (OR even open the dropdown menu to see what else was available). What I had assumed was easy to figure out…they did not.

    Using a 15″ widescreen laptop and dragging the right edge of the window to the left, the menu stays non-collapsible until the viewscreen reaches tablet size. Is it possible to delay that collapse, until the viewscreen reaches smartphone size?

    Could that be implemented with a new Theme Update? If not, how about some sort of new Options Button in the Theme’s Customizer?

    Some Additional Thoughts:

    I’m not sure what the correct solution for my inquiry is, AND I’m not even sure it that it matters or not.

    1.) The above site I’m using this theme for is setup for Mobile users who I’m hoping will view it through their Social sites.

    2.) I recently deleted two Main Menu items (Music Videos and Random Thoughts) to make the site easier to understand at first glance (Items reduction from 5 to 3).

    3.) Even then, some first time viewers seem to need to be force-fed with the least amount of thought possible on their part.

    4.) Now I’m kind of leaning towards asking for a new Options Button in the themes Customizer that I can change-at-will as I do more surveying.

    5.) None of this is a problem with the theme (I really like it for what I do with it). I’m just trying to fine-tune how I use it.

    More Additional Thoughts:

    Now I’m thinking the Main Menu Collapse Point ought to be left alone, and I was giving too much credit to dumb end-users. They should have been able to figure out how to expand the menu themselves, and were probably poor choices for my small survey.

    Is it possible to delay that collapse, until the viewscreen reaches smartphone size?

    This would be possible with some custom CSS that you could add to your child theme, but it sounds like you’ve decided to leave things alone. 🙂

    You’re correct…

    I did change my mind, and decided to just leave things alone in that respect.

    Thanks for your response though!
